What is a good target design and how do countries compare?

The Climate Action Tracker tracks government climate action in around 40 countries and measures it against the 1.5°C Paris Agreement limit. To evaluate government net zero targets, we have identified ten key elements to assess their scope, architecture, and transparency. In this event, we presented our evaluation of governments’ net zero target design and outline what needs to happen between now and COP27.
